Ch3 The Horrible Visions
That night, Harry sat in the Gryffindor Common Room doing Snape's essay about the toilet cleaning potion. He scribbled something down from a book, Ron was sitting on the next armchair yawning away. Hermione was knitting hats again.
'Hermione? That hat looks too big for the house elves, you'll need to do a shrinking spell.' said Ron looking bored.
'Oh, they are just right, it's not for house elves, I figured out they don't want them anyway, I've got another plan.' said Hermione looking smug.
'Wow! Is it for Quirrell? I'm think he needs it.' said Ron.
'Nope, besides, he's dead. I doing this for Lockhart, see, it matches his teeth, they are white.' said Hermione. Ron looked greatly dissappointed and sunk back into his chair.
Suddenly, Neville rushed down the stairs looking all panicky, his round face looking all sweaty.
'Trevor! Has anyone... seen my toad? I th... think I lost it, haven't seen it since I c...ame to school. Oh no! The hor...horrors.' panted Neville breathlessly.
'Really.' mumbled Hermione looking annoyed for some reason.
'No.' said Ron casually. Harry shook his head. Neville stared dumbly for a moment and hurried up again.
'Blimey. I think I'll finish this tomorrow.' said Harry throwing his book on the floor as he dragged his feet up.
He quickly changed into his pyjamas and threw himself onto his bed. A few minutes later Ron walked humming a tune. It sounded strangely familiar...
He was drifting off...
He was in a dark room walking... He was heading towards a door at the very far end. His heart was beating faster... He reached the door... He raised his long white fingers to the knob... The door swung opened.
'Where is it?' Harry asked coldly. A small man was kneeling on the floor shaking uncontrollably. 'Where is it, Wormtail?'
'Here... just got it... ' said Wormtail looking terrified. Harry gave a harsh laugh.
'Finally! It's mine, it's a whole complete set.' Harry hissed. He was feeling very happy. He didn't know why, but he knew he had something he wanted very much. 'All mine. You've done well Wormtail.'
'Congratulations, master... you've d...done it.' said Wormtail shakily.
'You'll be rewarded with a knut.' Harry said as he threw something on the floor. 'The day has come, I've finally collected the full set!' Harry laugh loudly, so loudly that his ear hurt. Harry's scar was burning. Wormtail started screaming. His head was bursting with pain. Someone else was screaming.
Harry's scar was burning like crazy.
'Harry, harry. Are you alright?' Ron was slapping his face. Harry sat up, he was feeling rather sick, his scar was burning. He shut his eyes tightly trying to recall his dream.
'What did you see this time. Another attack?' Ron asked anxiously, 'Who is it? Did you just see you-know-who attack Quirrell?'
'It's Voldemort, he's really happy, Wormtail.' said Harry rubbing his scar. The pain was receding. 'Wormtail gave it to him, something Voldemort really wants. I saw it. He took it out of his pocket, gave it to...to you-know-who. Wormtail's got Voldemort a full set of Barbie dolls.'
'What's that?' whispered Ron looking very pale.
'It's sort of muggle figure thing that don't move, my cousin Dudley plays with them.' said Harry rubbing his head and falling back to bed.
'They don't move too? That's scary.' said Ron softly. 'Listen. It's really late, we've still got Quidditch tomorrow, oh if we lose to Slytherin, I going to hide my face for ever, never ever going to show my face again. Maybe I'll leave the school, that way I won't have to face him again. No, he might come and find me, or his dad might, No, I think I'll go and live in Azkaban, there will be loads of dementors, he's afraid of them, yup, that will scare him off. That's what I'll do. But his father is in Azkaban, no no definately not, maybe... Oh Harry tell me what should I do? Harry? Harry? Oh, maybe I'll go to Romania to live in a colony, no, it's for the dragons, how about the forbidden forest, I can live in a herd, no, the centuars will attack me, it's so difficult, so many choices. Let me think... Ah! I KNOW!'
Seamus grunted. Someone else stirred.
'Do you mind?' Harry asked irritated.
'Oops sorry, I think I'll go and live with the Dursleys, you think so? Alright. Alright. I'll keep it down. The Dursleys would be fine. Ok. Goodnight.'
The next morning, they carried their broomsticks down for Quidditch. Hermione offered to carry Harry's so that she could admire it. Neville's face was pale green, he looked like he had just sallowed a bottle of hair spray. Ginny however looked pretty confident. The two beaters were looking nervous. Hooper kept knocking his goblet over.
A new Hufflepuff called Mark Evans (who as Harry remembered, got beatened up by Dudley last year and surprisingly found out that he was a wizard) walked up to them to wish them good luck. Harry found his name strangely familiar.
A big crowd gathered around the Slytherin table. Harry could hear Malfoy shouting over the crowd. He saw Harry and sneered.
'Heard that's he's got a Firebolt like you, Harry.' said Dean.
'Really? A Firebolt? Cool!' said Ron as he ran over to take a better look.
'How'd he get the money, his father's in Akzaban.' said Harry.
'Probably robbed the bank,' said Seamus, 'You-know-who did it once before, he could do it again.'
Snap.
'Harry, I heard that you're the new Gryffindor seeker.' piped Colin holding a camera.
The great door suddenly burst open.
'CAT! Cat in the dangeons! CAT IN THE DANGEONS.' shouted Oliver Wood running in. 'Thought you ought to know.'
Wood fell to the ground. Neville's face turned pink then he too fainted. The rest continued chatting.
Wood woke up. 'Hey! Didn't you hear me properly, I said Cat in the dangeons!' The whole school stared at him as if he was an alien from mars.
'Oh, all right. It was a joke. You should have seen the looks on your faces. It's only Mrs Norris, you don't have to panic. It was a joke. Calm down. Today is Gryffindor versus Slytherin right?' Wood walked in and took his seat beside Hermione. Everyone continued eating.
'All right there, Hermione?' he asked.
'Get lost, this seat is reserved for Vicky.' Hermione said kicking Wood away. He got up and sat beside Ginny instead. He started lecturing Neville and Ginny on his new tactics.
'When Hermione has the quaffle, remember to stay...' Wood was saying.
Dumbledore suddenly walked in with a grave expression on his face. The whole school fell silent immediately. Every head was facing him, following him as he swept quickly past the tables and up to the teacher's.
'May I have you attention please?' said Mcgonagall hitting her goblet with a fork until it broke.
'I have been informed that there was a cat loose in this castle. Now, do not panic, I've called the Aurors to come and catch it, don't worry, they will do a clean job. I hope no one will get hurt. Just don't let come near me.' said Dumbledore.
'Err... professor, it's just Mrs Norris.' said a Ravenclaw boy raising his hand slightly.
'Mrs Norris or Mr Norris, I don't care, just don't panic. Now Rubeus, you will guard the door, in case the cat comes in, Snivellus, you guard the windows.' said Dumbledore importantly.
Harry swore he saw Snape's lips twitched when Dumbledore addressed him.
'I'll not let this cat ruin today. Any one who spot this cat should use the felletone and call this number: " 1800-I-JUST-SPOTTED-A-MYSTERIOUS-DANGEROUS-CREATURE-AND-I-CALLED-THIS-NUMBER-TO-REPORT-WHAT-I-SAW." Thank you.' said Dumbledore.
'Wicked!'
Suddenly, Dumbledore's face turned red.
'MERLIN'S BEARD! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING??? YOU STARTED BREAKFAST WITHOUT WAITING FOR ME? And I thought you loved me? I am your headmaster. You know that, I know you do. And to think you didn't wait for me when I was only an hour late for breakfast? I didn't want to be late. It's not as if I was late on purpose, I had to powder my face every morning to hide my wrinkles and- Oh no, I shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have told you that. Everyone keep quiet. That's top secret that is. But...' Dumbledore's face turned pink,
'Nevermind what I've just said, nothing. Forget it. That's not so secret, err... Oh, Snivelly Snape does ballet. Haha... that's better. Get it?' Dumbledore stood up, smiled and walked away. Snape's (who was standing by the window ) face turned red. He covered his face with his robes and ran away.
Harry and the other Gryffindor quidditch members headed to the quidditch field after breakfast. He was starting to feel nervous already. He could hear the whole school cheering. Neville who just woke up after fainting looked paler than before. Wood was still going on about his plan. Professor Hooch stepped out carrying the trunk with the balls.
Harry looked over at the Slytherins, to his great relief, Malfoy wasn't holding a firebolt.
Crabbe and Goyle were waving their bats violently, snarling at Hooper.
Professor Hooch released the snitch.
'Now get ready, on the count of three. Three... two... one.' Professor Hooch blew the whistle and threw the Quaffle high up into the air. There was a big mess as the chasers fought for the Quaffle. Harry couldn't see who had the Quaffle.
'Blaise passes to... he drops it... good catch by Gryffindor chaser Weasley... passes to...' Colin the new commenter commented. Colin gave Harry a thumbs up when Harry caught his eye. Harry looked around for the snitch, aware that Malfoy was tailing at the back. Suddenly Crabbe and Goyle shot out of somewhere and started whacking everyone. They
hit Ginny, Hooper, A Slytherin chaser and Ron. A penalty was awarded for that .
Harry flew around in search of the golden snitch. Slytherins were leading, ninety to seventy. Harry saw something gold fluttering at the Gryffindor end. His heart leapt.
He turned to see if Malfoy was following him but Malfoy was nowhere in sight. He shot towards the snitch and caught it easily.
'Harry Potter has caught the golden snitch! Harry has the snitch, Gryffindor gets two thousand points! Yes? Professor. I mean a hundred and fifty points. Gryffindor wins!' shouted Colin.
Harry turned to look at Malfoy, only surprised to see laughing madly.
That night, they sat in the Gryffindor common room. Hermione was dancing and singing, 'I'm taller than Harry. I'm taller than Harry.'
Harry kicked her. Hermione fell onto the floor and started breakdancing all over. Ron started cheering her on.
Suddenly, there was a loud crash. Harry turned to the source of the sound. Malfoy had just driven his new black BMW through the wall of the Gryffindor common room.
'Oops, sorry mudblood. Wrong gear, I'm still learning you know. This is hard. Reparo' said Malfoy scratching the back of his ear. The front of his car repaired automatically. He reversed and there was another loud crash.
'Sorry, didn't meant to interrupted, stepped on...' They heard Malfoy saying. Hermione started panicking.
'Oh no, he's found our Gryffindor common room. The enemy has spotted us, found our base. We're all going to die.' She said breathlessly and was on the point of bursting into tears.
'Wicked!' said Ron.
'Oh well, who cares.' said Hermione as she stopped crying and started dancing again. They heard another loud crash outside followed by several screams. All of a sudden, the fireplace burst into green flames. There was another crash but this time it came from the fireplace itself. There was some noisy scraping and a pair of giant legs appeared at the top.
'Whoever that it, they must be stuck up there.' said Ron.
'It's Santa.' breathed Hermione. 'Goodness. And it's not even christmas yet. He must have come to give me presents. I've been a good girl this whole year.'
The person slid down after a few pushes.
'Hi Harry, hi Ron and Hermione. Just wanted ter visit yer. I was bored. This fireplace is too small.' said Hagrid happily.
'Just wanted to talk to you about Sirius.' Hagrid laughed, ' but you don't seem to want to talk about him eh, Harry.' Hagrid laughed loudly.
'Let's play a game instead.' said Hermione who looked determined to change the subject. Hagrid gave a small chuckle.
Why is he laughing? Harry thought angrily.
'Ok, let's play pool, I love playing pool. Accio pool table.' said Ron holding up his wand. They heard more crashes and screams outside. Then, a big pool table came crashing through the wall flying past the common room, hitting Harry and Hermione's head as it flew and bouncing onto Hagrid's body before finally landing onto the floor.
'Oops.' said Ron. Harry felt his head trobbing badly.
'Let's play.' said Ron as he and Hagrid started playing. Harry fell onto an armchair, turned on the radio and quickly found Wireless Wizarding Network. Hermione started breakdancing again.
After a while, Hagrid finally lost to Ron in their pool game. Hagrid started throwing a tantrum. He stormed on the floor while it shook violently. He continued storming and so suddenly, the floor gave way. He fell right through it and they heard a crash below and someone yelling.
Harry ran to the hole and took his place beside Ron. Hagrid was on the level below, lying on a big black mass which turned out to be Malfoy's BMW. Malfoy quickly squirmed out from under Hagrid's knee.
'I can fix that.' said Hagrid quickly.
'Time to get my new car.' said Malfoy as he skipped away.
'Merlin's beard! What was that?' asked Dumbledore wearing his flowery pyjamas as he walked in. He stared for a moment, turned, flapped his arms and flew out of the room.
'I'm taller than Harry. I'm...' Hermione was singing at the back of a frustrated Harry. Ron kicked her this time. Hermione stopped and mend the floor with a wave of her wand. Ron continued playing pool as Hermione started break dancing again. Harry walked up to the wall to repair it but before he could mutter and incantation, a Porche crashed through another part of the wall, flew in and knocked him over.
'Look everyone, my new car. Beautiful isn't it?' Malfoy said laughing happily. Harry got up. Ron and Hermione were gaping at Malfoy. Malfoy started up the engine again and reversed with another loud crash. Through the hole, Harry could see that Malfoy's car had gone through the wall of a bathroom.
'Next time knock before coming in.' Ron called after. There was another scream. Harry repaired the wall and heard more crashes outside.
'I had enough. I'm going back to bed.' Harry announced walking up the stairs.
'Hmm...' came Ron's reply.
'Good night. Harry. Honestly, if they don't start driving properly, this castle is going to collasp, sooner or later.' Hermione said.
'Wicked. Wanna play golf?'
It was snowing heavily outside, Mcgongall had began taking down names of those who wanted to stay for christmas, Harry and Ron were one of the first few who signed up. Hermione had finally agreed to stay after much persuasion. They were sitting in the library doing their essays. Hermione, as usual had finished hers, she was reading a book on arithmancy while breakdancing. Harry and Ron was doing Snape's essay about the freezing potion. Ernie Mcmillian was doing his charms essay.
Mdm Prince was casting dirty looks at Hermione, but couldn't do anything about it. There was no rule in the library that stated: No Dancing.
'What is this thing about adding toad blood, do we have to chop up trevor, or something?' Ron asked looking uninterested.
Neville burst in so suddenly that Hermione and a few others screamed.
'Trevor? Trevor? Where are you? I heard Trevor's name.' Neville shouted madly. Everyone stared at him. He walked out looking disappointed.
'Blimey, he's must be sick. D'you think that Quirrell took them, I remembered him talking about toad once, I can't remember.' said Ron.
'Quirrell is dead. Besides, I'm pretty sure Percy took them, he loves eating frog legs, probably mistook Trevor for being a frog.' said Ernie.
'What about the toad's poor eyeball? Somebody's gonna have to eat it.' asked Ron grinning.
'What's with the eyeball?' asked Ernie.
'If nobody's going to eat it, I will.' said Ron.
'But don't forget, there are two of them.' said Ernie rolling his eyes.
'Hermione will have the second one.' said Ron.
'I'm not going to eat that thing.' said Hermione flatly.
'Harry?' Ron asked hopefully.
'Hey Ron, what d'you reckon the donkey's liver is-' started Harry.
'Fine then. Let it rot there. Let the poor eyeball rot. The-' said Ron feeling hurt.
There was a loud crash. Mdm Prince screamed.
'Sorry. Forgot to pull the brake.' said Malfoy apologetically as he reversed his yellow car away followed by another crash. Mdm prince took her feather duster and stormed out.
'Hope she roasts him this time.' said Ron.
'Let's go back to the common room.' Harry suggested. They carried their bags and left Ernie Macmillian there talking to himself.
Ch3 The Horrible Visions
That night, Harry sat in the Gryffindor Common Room doing Snape's essay about the toilet cleaning potion. He scribbled something down from a book, Ron was sitting on the next armchair yawning away. Hermione was knitting hats again.
'Hermione? That hat looks too big for the house elves, you'll need to do a shrinking spell.' said Ron looking bored.
'Oh, they are just right, it's not for house elves, I figured out they don't want them anyway, I've got another plan.' said Hermione looking smug.
'Wow! Is it for Quirrell? I'm think he needs it.' said Ron.
'Nope, besides, he's dead. I doing this for Lockhart, see, it matches his teeth, they are white.' said Hermione. Ron looked greatly dissappointed and sunk back into his chair.

'No.' said Ron casually. Harry shook his head. Neville stared dumbly for a moment and hurried up again.

He quickly changed into his pyjamas and threw himself onto his bed. A few minutes later Ron walked humming a tune. It sounded strangely familiar...
He was drifting off...
He was in a dark room walking... He was heading towards a door at the very far end. His heart was beating faster... He reached the door... He raised his long white fingers to the knob... The door swung opened.
'Where is it?' Harry asked coldly. A small man was kneeling on the floor shaking uncontrollably. 'Where is it, Wormtail?'
'Here... just got it... ' said Wormtail looking terrified. Harry gave a harsh laugh.
'Finally! It's mine, it's a whole complete set.' Harry hissed. He was feeling very happy. He didn't know why, but he knew he had something he wanted very much. 'All mine. You've done well Wormtail.'
'Congratulations, master... you've d...done it.' said Wormtail shakily.
'You'll be rewarded with a knut.' Harry said as he threw something on the floor. 'The day has come, I've finally collected the full set!' Harry laugh loudly, so loudly that his ear hurt. Harry's scar was burning. Wormtail started screaming. His head was bursting with pain. Someone else was screaming.
Harry's scar was burning like crazy.
'Harry, harry. Are you alright?' Ron was slapping his face. Harry sat up, he was feeling rather sick, his scar was burning. He shut his eyes tightly trying to recall his dream.
'What did you see this time. Another attack?' Ron asked anxiously, 'Who is it? Did you just see you-know-who attack Quirrell?'
'It's Voldemort, he's really happy, Wormtail.' said Harry rubbing his scar. The pain was receding. 'Wormtail gave it to him, something Voldemort really wants. I saw it. He took it out of his pocket, gave it to...to you-know-who. Wormtail's got Voldemort a full set of Barbie dolls.'
'What's that?' whispered Ron looking very pale.
'It's sort of muggle figure thing that don't move, my cousin Dudley plays with them.' said Harry rubbing his head and falling back to bed.
'They don't move too? That's scary.' said Ron softly. 'Listen. It's really late, we've still got Quidditch tomorrow, oh if we lose to Slytherin, I going to hide my face for ever, never ever going to show my face again.

Let me think... Ah! I KNOW!'
Seamus grunted. Someone else stirred.
'Do you mind?' Harry asked irritated.
'Oops sorry, I think I'll go and live with the Dursleys, you think so? Alright. Alright. I'll keep it down. The Dursleys would be fine. Ok. Goodnight.'

Mdm Prince was casting dirty looks at Hermione, but couldn't do anything about it. There was no rule in the library that stated: No Dancing.
'What is this thing about adding toad blood, do we have to chop up trevor, or something?' Ron asked looking uninterested.
Neville burst in so suddenly that Hermione and a few others screamed.
'Trevor? Trevor? Where are you? I heard Trevor's name.' Neville shouted madly. Everyone stared at him. He walked out looking disappointed.
'Blimey, he's must be sick. D'you think that Quirrell took them, I remembered him talking about toad once, I can't remember.' said Ron.
'Quirrell is dead. Besides, I'm pretty sure Percy took them, he loves eating frog legs, probably mistook Trevor for being a frog.' said Ernie.
'What about the toad's poor eyeball? Somebody's gonna have to eat it.' asked Ron grinning.
'What's with the eyeball?' asked Ernie.
'If nobody's going to eat it, I will.' said Ron.
'But don't forget, there are two of them.' said Ernie rolling his eyes.
'Hermione will have the second one.' said Ron.
'I'm not going to eat that thing.' said Hermione flatly.
'Harry?' Ron asked hopefully.
'Hey Ron, what d'you reckon the donkey's liver is-' started Harry.
'Fine then. Let it rot there. Let the poor eyeball rot. The-' said Ron feeling hurt.
There was a loud crash. Mdm Prince screamed.
'Sorry. Forgot to pull the brake.' said Malfoy apologetically as he reversed his yellow car away followed by another crash. Mdm prince took her feather duster and stormed out.
'Hope she roasts him this time.' said Ron.
'Let's go back to the common room.' Harry suggested. They carried their bags and left Ernie Macmillian there talking to himself.
